Boyhood fan Hodkinson returns to injury-hit Manly

Manly Sea Eagles have been boosted by the return of half-back Trent Hodkinson from Cronulla Sharks on a contract until the end of 2019.

The injury-hit Sea Eagles are struggling in the NRL this season and were in need of a new playmaker after Jackson Hastings was demoted to reserve grade following a pair of incidents with captain Dale Cherry-Evans.

They now have their man in 29-year-old Hodkinson, who has signed with Manly for a second time having debuted in the NRL with the side in 2010.

"It's good to be back," he told the club's website. "There are a few familiar faces around; not too many, but it's good to be back. I'm excited.

"It's the club I made my debut at - I've always had a soft spot for Manly. It was the team my dad went for, so I went for them growing up as well."
